hooray

I tried 5 times to make this picture turn the right way around...failure

thats me at new year with my new transparent saxoflute

ryan is working on a solo record. It will feature me n him, mostly, and maybe a few drummers

it will definitely be out by summer, so there

a Limblifter song got picked up by MTV to be the theme song of a show called I'm from rolling stone, that's exciting

watch for it, i mean listen for it

2007, like a bullet

well, my current listening pleasures include:

television, marquee moon

peter bjorn & john, writer's block

beck, information (beck comes off awfully serious lately, you know what I mean?) I saw him on some live "in the round" (member when def leopard started that shit y'all?) show and his band was having fun and Beck seemed mildly miserable.

it is christmas on saturday for me n my ma n pa. they both turn 60 this year...isn't that terrific. Me n ma are possibly planning a trip to disneyland/knott's for her birthday. a little screaming on rides/ sunshine/ complete escapist therapy. member therapy? (the irish band)

way to go for 2007:
I began a very small recycling program/regime at my job. (baby steps/ anything counts (in small amounts)
I got cutlery for the job, so no more misc plastic once-in-awhile forks to throw away.

al gore just patted me on the back.

I will try to eat more brown rice and oatmeal. Cutting down on the cheese (AH SWEET GLORIOUS CHEESE), and the bread. i should have been born in France. I like cheese, bread, wine, the rolling countryside, take-it-easy-cafe and cobblestone cityscapes, and fashion. and i am thin.

props to izia (of jeff and izia) for sharing the most unique and delicious wine with me over the holidays. (serious bottle) izia is the best cook I know. I look up to her culinary prowess (and most would say that i am a good cook) (I dated a chef for 2 years a long time ago and ripped him off for everything he knows). we had a vegetarian feast:

new year new beta blogger or somethin

I switched my blogger account finally...to some new upgraded version....I guess

there were 2 different xmas type trees that were around me over the holidays. neither were my own, but both had little german style hanging candles....

I got a digital camera for xmas. sony cyber shot. hot.

current listening enjoyment:
r. crumb's heroes of blues jazz and country

stories?

what's this, what about this

I snooped anround myspace tonite....yawnsical.

but i did see this

and my friend sent me this
because he likes scrabble and I like scatagories. but i think that video prooves my hate of scrabble theory....no wait, hate is too strong a word. scrabble is just so slow and mentally dibilitating

i have not been posting much lately, have u noticed? I have a life that sometimes gets in the way of tinkering on a 'pute. only if it gets to be a bit later at night and a nice sip o scotch or something...then I type.

blogger is acting up....i need to switch to beta blog or something I guess. tell me your holiday stories.

good xmas thingies:
vitasoy nog (less sweet than the competitions)
I hate mandarin oranges (so there)
red wine and scotch (the wintertime drinks)
boots (my new pair of NYC trippens to be exact)
scarf (for warmth)
my new mono mittens (thanks heather)
xmas lights + vince guliardi (sp?)


dvd recommend:
blood tea and red string
the wire (HBO)
who killed the electric car

music:
the kinks
the kinks

music that I want to start listening to again
xtc


dear santa peoples, all I want for xmas is:

eat this

oh ya, eat that.

weekend in a nut

well what a weekender

did anybody come to the Mint xmas parties?

Actually loads of peeps I know did. It was fun. the singer from Franz Ferdinand was at the Saturday show and he sang a song with the Evaporators. He then hung out all night, watched us play and then he told me after the show that he liked us. oh, my little brush with an "A" celeb.

something I discovered this weekend: my dad looks a little like Andy warhol. excluding the lack of skin pigment and wig. neat..

I play cello at a funeral on friday. I am a little stressed about it, as I havent played solo in a long time. and I take funerals seriously....i mean, the people at the funeral dont wanna hear some hack on the 'cello... then sparrow plays at richards on richards on saturday. so there.
